To go with the Camel, a sturdy footed chap this one with a sawdust finish.
Camel and Arab
Another one from my book the Forest Toys of Brockenhurst this colourful Camel and Arab rider in flowing robes are visiting the oasis, all this was made as part of a boxed set.
Great Dane
This beautiful dog is another one made by The Forest Toys of Brockenhurst from my book and is rather like the real one we used to own.
Forest Toys Donkey
This factory sample shown in my book, clearly shows the joins and note the cheek and ear in one section.
Doll’s House book
Not my book, but a very good friends and well worth a look on www.ciderhousebooks.com Excellent photos and information about 17th, 18th and 19th Century houses.
Forest Toys West Highland White Terrier
West Highland White by FOREST TOYS OF BROCKENHURST
From my book this hardy and tenacious dog was bred to hunt otter, fox and vermin. They also make excellent guard dogs too. This little chap stands 2.5cm high.
Chimpanzee
For those of you who have my book, a small correction. The primate on page 64 is a chimpanzee not a gorilla. I had not seen it for myself until recently.
Forest Toys greyhound
Another dog from my book. Interesting how the grain of the wood looks rather like the dogs ribs. He is 5cm high.
Forest Toys Newfoundland, not Old English Sheepdog
Unless you saw this dog next to an OES you might think they were the same, but this one is 6cm high, 2cm more. Also he has a long tail. Both can be seen in my book.
Pretty flamingo
This bird is not in my book. He has long metal legs, probably lead and good big feet to help him keep his balance.
